Last night’s Super Bowl game was unfortunately for Baltimore Raven fans 17 year veteran Ray Lewis’ final game in his career since he is retiring. The 37 year old middle linebacker has played in 229 games, has made 1588 solo tackles, 41.5 sacks, and over his career forced 50 turnovers, 31 interceptions and 19 forced fumbles. He has had his fair share of ups and downs over his career. His career started off great as he came into the league as a new and exciting talent. He even won his first Super Bowl after only four years in league. Sadly for him later that night after the Super Bowl victory he was arrested and accused of murder. Luckily for him he was found not guilty. Lewis’team though wasn’t very talented after the Super Bowl win. In the last five years the Ravens became a team to beat, being competitive every year in the five year span. Now they were in the Super Bowl. Lewis was fired up as always providing talent in the middle of the defense and serving as an emotional leader for the team. His legacy will end up like this: outstanding Hall of Famer which many believe he is going to end as or player who used steroids?

There is no denying Ray Lewis is a physical monster. He is absolutely built for football. How could he get so big? Was it just working out or could he have used performance-enhancing drugs to get so big? Last Tuesday news was released saying that Ray Lewis is linked to taking the drugs. Ray Lewis has denied everything said about him and for his sake I hope it isn’t true but until more facts and evidence are provided no one can really be sure what happened. Whatever happens I hope it works out for Ray and I hope he and enjoy his retirement watching his son play football at the University of Miami.

We all look forward to the Superbowl commercials each year. Which was your favorite this year?
